I feel good enough about Beautiful Soup 4 to do an alpha release. It does not yet work with Python 3, but at this point I feel like the BS4 series is better than the BS3 series. BS4 will use html5lib if you've got it, or lxml if you've got that, or if all else fails it will use the built-in HTMLParser, with all its problems.
